Waverly
was able to come home yesterday! She woke up in the hospital more
herself, talkative and alert. And she did well when they turned her
oxygen down to 1 liter, and her respirations were decreased, so they let
us go home even though she was still on some oxygen.
She
will continue on oxygen as needed, but we will try to wean her off of
it as she tolerates it. She is also on Augmentin (antibiotic) for her
ear infections (both ears!), prednisone, albuterol nebulizer treatments,
chest physical therapy, as well as her normal regimen of medicines and
therapies. Her lungs sound much better although are a bit crackly and
wheezy still.
Can you tell she's happy to be home?
Here are all her machines set up last night. What a mess of machines and cords! (Yes, the o2 sat says 88. We were adjusting her settings for the night!)
